Abstract excerpt
Melanoma differentiation-associated gene-7/interleukin-24 (mda-7/IL-24) is a cancer-specific, growth-suppressing and apoptosis-inducing gene with broad-spectrum antitumor activity. However, when administered by means of a replication-incompetent adenovirus, Ad.mda-7, several colorectal carcinoma cell lines are resistant to its antiproliferative and antisurvival effects. We have presently endeavored to determine...
